[QUOTE]Officers said at least six gunmen on motorcycles stopped the bus and fired at passengers indiscriminately.
"There are 41 deaths, men and women included," police spokesman Atiq Shaikh told Reuters.
Pakistan's Shia minority are the target of frequent sectarian attacks from Sunni militant groups.
Television channels carried pictures of a pink bus covered in bullet holes.
No group has yet said it carried out the attack.
Provincial police chief Ghulam Haider Jamali said the bus was on its way to an Ismaili Shia Muslim place of worship when gunmen boarded it in the Safoora Goth area of Karachi and fired at passengers.
The Taliban and other Sunni Muslim extremist groups have targeted Shia Muslims in Pakistan in the past.
In the last few months, several mosques belonging to religious minorities have been bombed.[/QUOTE]

at that point you might aswell just go out like a boss and charge their asses.
I didn't realise the taliban spread as far as Karachi, I expected them on the north eastern borders but not deep in Pakistan.
